Dorm Room Bath Essentials! (Under $10 Each)


Hello Beautiful People! ,

If you're anything like me, showering has to be the best thing in life, especially when living in a dorm. For me, showering in college is my "alone time", my little bubble, my me time, my time to concentrate on myself and nothing else (like schoolwork, roommates, friends, problems etc). 

It's very important for me to find bath products that make showering something a little MORE exciting to look forward too. I went to Target and Walmart last weekend and picked up a few things for my shower caddy. 

ALL of these products are brand new to me. I've never purchased them in my life, I've just heard really amazing things about them on Youtube and Beauty Blogs. They are all drugstore products so I promise you they're super inexpensive and they won't be a HUGE financial loss if you end up hating any of the products. I'm really excited to try these out because I know I'll love them so much. Hopefully you give these products a try as well :)!

HAIR:
Herbal Essences Hello Hydration Moisturizing Shampoo
I bought the 33.8 oz bottle so it could last me for some while.
I actually had a sample bottle of this shampoo and I LOVED
the smell it gave to my hair. It was a must to purchase.
$6.14 (Purchased at Walmart)
Aussie Moist 3 Minute Deep Conditioner 
I'm not a huge fan of regular conditioners. But I do like
to give my hair a deep condition at least twice a week. This deep
conditioner has been raved about by so many v/bloggers
I decided to finally jump on the bandwagon. 
$3.00 (Purchased at Walmart)

Not Your Mother's Clean Freak Refreshing Dry Shampoo
The dry shampoo I used to have did not work at all. I've heard
amazing things about this one so I decided why not. (BTW I use
dry shampoo more for a texture/volume spray on my hair)
$4.74 (Purchased at Walmart)

Palmer's Coconut Oil Moisture Gro Hairdress
This is another product I've been meaning to buy.
It's more of a leave in conditioner but I've heard so many
great things about coconut oil. I've already started using this baby
and it's amazing. I definitely recommend it to anyone. 
$5.00 (Purchased at Target)


BODY:
Tone Petal Soft Moisturizing Pink Peony & Rose Oil Body Wash
I'm a big fan of Tone Body Wash. I haven't tried this scent yet
but I have tried their others. I'm sure I'll love it just as much.
$3.00 (Purchased at Walmart)

OmShe Caviar Body Exfoliating Scrub in Mango Orange
I originally wanted another body scrub from Walmart but they didn't
have it.  Later that day, I ran into this body scrub at T.J.Maxx and I loved
 how it smelled so I decided why not! But moral of the story make
sure you buy a good body scrub for those days you want to 
exfoliate all of your skin.
Original price: $25.00
$7.99 (Purchased at T.J.Maxx)

Gillette Satin Care Sensitive Skin Shave Gel for Women
I really wanted a shaving cream that had a sensitive
skin formula just because my legs have gotten irritated
from other shaving creams I've used in the past. Gillette is a really
great brand so I trusted this one enough to give it a shot
& plus it came with two shaving creams. :)
$4.62 (Purchased at Walmart)

FACE:
Bioré Deep Pore Charcoal Cleanser
I have recently bought a few skin care products that I
loved so this is the only new addition. I really wanted
a cleanser that would target my black heads. I tend
to get a lot in my nose area and chin. I have been using
this cleanser every other day and I have noticed a subtle 
change in my black heads. Hopefully I see a gradual
improvement over time. 
$6.50 (Purchased at Target)

That's it guys!
Everything I mentioned was literally under $10 and I think all these products deserve a shot!
I can't wait to try them out and give you guys a full review on most these items. If you've tried any of these products before let me know if you've liked them or just simply weren't feeling them.

SPA SISTER: Clear Skin Facial Toning Brush Duo

Hello Beautiful People,

I wanted today's post to be a quick "thoughts and review" on a new product I recently got my hands on. I went to T.J.Maxx last weekend and came across the Clean Skin Toning Brush Duo by SPA SISTER.

My Clarasonic Mia stopped working recently (it stopped charging) and I was in some desperate need of a new cleansing brush. I decided to not repurchase my Clarasonic Mia just yet and maybe try some other cleansing brushes instead. So I figured why not buy the one I came across at T.J.Maxx, I mean it was only $7.99.
So I bought it and I've been using it on my face every day (morning and night) and I absolutely love it. Like no joke, it's been leaving my face so smooth.

I would HIGHLY compare this cleansing brush to Sephora's Dynamic Duo Face Brush that retails for $16.00 (Click Here)

This product claims to be "an ultra-soft brush head that gently exfoliates dead skin cells while the silicone pad with tiny bristles deeply cleanses pores while invigorating the skin".

Now now, I wouldn't stretch to far and compare this cleansing brush to a Clarasonic because the Clarasonic is obviously running on a motor of some sort while this brush is merely using the sole power of your hand movement.

Either way both these brushes do an incredible job of exfoliating and cleansing your face.

I've noticed that the soft brush head of this duo really gets my face scrubs super foamy and I love that. The silicone pad is great for my "T-Zone" since that's the area where I have more larger pores.

All in all I definitely recommend this cleansing brush to anyone who needs one, wants another one, won't financially commit to purchasing a Clarasonic, or wants a cheaper but great quality cleansing brush.

Now I've never heard of the brand SPA SISTER before but I love this product so much I will be purchasing more of their products in the future.
If you are interested in buying this product or learning more about this brand feel free to visit their
website at http://www.bathaccessories.com
I got my hands on this bad boy like I said at T.J.Maxx but you can also purchase it from their website
Amazon, or Ebay.

**In case you are interested:
In the morning I use this cleansing brush with my Clean&Clear Morning Burst Facial Cleanser
and at night I use this brush with my Biore Acne Clearing Scrub after using my Cetaphil Daily Facial Cleanser (Review On Products)

Yours truly,
